1: Physically.
2: Mentally.

Physically:

I can lift abit of weight, though I'm way off being some uber strong superman type. Got used to heavy lifting when I was floor laying, with having to carry BIG rolls of carpet, vinyl, lino, bags of latex, underlay and so on. Probably not as strong as I was a few years back though, due to not doing that job anymore, and having left karate.

Mentally:

I can be quite strong. I do tend to let things go, if something really does bother me though I'll usually just bottle it up until it all comes out at once, I don't really like talking to people about things, more of listener. Not really into conflict either, if I have to say something to someone I will, but usually I'll just not bother to avoid whatever may come after.

I can focus on things pretty well to. If I want to do something, I will do it. Though at times I may get annoyed and have a little hissy fit, I'll still go back and finish. When it came to karate, I was mentally strong than physical. My body would be aching all over but I'd keep pushing myself. No wonder my knee packed in. :wacky:
 
Physically...haha

I have a hard time opening bulky doors so like, not very xD I can throw a mean right hook when I want to I floored my ex for drink driving, but tbh, I think it was just a lucky shot and he wasnt expecting me to do it...but yeah, Im pretty mu ch just a weakling :wacky:

Mentally. Id like to think I was strong mentally, although I CAN be a push over - if just for the easy life or if I have a soft spot for someone. If Ive made up my mind about summat though, I wont back down, the more someone pushes me, the more Il dig my heels in, Id cut my own nose off to spite my face I would sometimes. Iwont let people walk all over me in a RS either, if I want to do summat Il be damned if Im gunna let anyone stop me...so yeah, I reckon Im quite strong minded nowadays. If I get into something, Il finish iot, or Il give it my all, I hate quitting, it pisses me off

Actually, that probably just means Im a stubborn old twat, not sure iff it makes me strong mentally :wacky:
 
Physically >.>

Not very :awesome:, I could hold my own but if some fucker that goes to a gym often comes I'd be fucked, considering I'm not really built for hugely physical activity. However, say in football (soccer) where the physical side comes into things I can hold my own just as well as anyone else we played when I was with Teesside and wasn't once pushed off the ball so on that aspect I'm sorted :awesome:

Mentally...
I'd say very, simply put if I don't want to do anything I won't and will if I want to, again I can hold my own in debates, emotional circumstances etc and if I need to be a stubborn twat I will :awesome:
 
Physically?
I can't describe it actually. Sure I can punch hard, kick even harder, run fast, my stamina is kinda high (joined the track team for a year and previously part of a soccer team), do some basic joint-locks (MMA for a short time) and I can kick someone's ass with a wooden stick (I know Eskrima/Kali BTW). But then, I suck at weight lifting. I just train myself by punching and kicking a punching bag and stick training for my Kali/Eskrima...

NOTE: I'm not muscular xD

Mentally?
I'm not good at debates, I suck at math problems and I'm stubborn like an angry mule. I've always tried to "never give up" and I can forget things easily. I don't hold grudges and my wacko brain's very competitive in a certain way xD

I'm certainly not the strongest lad out there, but I'd say I'm fairly strong for my age and body type, but naturally I'm not as strong as some of the bigger guys. I went to the gym religiously last year, but I stopped going a few months ago. I'm planning to start going again soon though.

Mentally
To be honest, I don't really know how to define mental toughness or what you mean by it.

I can be stubborn at times. I'm not a very confrontational person. However, when I do argue with someone, I often let them win if it is about something stupid. But if the argument is about something important to me, then I generally won't back down.
 
Physically:

Physically I reckon I'm pretty strong. Being in the retail industry for 4 years toughens you up a bit. Lifting heavy as boxes, humongous ladders. Unloading palettes all the time helps too.

I did Kung-Fu (Tong Long) for 6 years and since leaving I've become a lot more unfit than I was for a while though.

Mentally:

Mentally I'm pretty strong. I say what I think without being rude of course. I try to get my point across without hurting anyone but sometimes it's hard.

I had enough of people walking all over me and have recently gotten rid of a few people that were in my life for around 8 years. It didn't really sadden me though because I was already trying to avoid them near the end.

I remember at work yesterday I had been doing a job from 8am to 11am and then my boss tells me it was all wrong and to redo it again to make it look how it had been originally. <_<

I was almost in tears and then I was like, "No. Suck it up. It's just work. They're paying you to waste time XD."

So yeah at random times like that I feel I've gotten a lot stronger mentally, because at one stage in my life I probably would have run off and hid somewhere and balled my eyes out. XD

Mentally, I'm not too sure. I can't motivate myself a lot of the time, I'd much rather go back to sleep than get up even though I know I should get up. On the other hand, I can't be forced to do something I don't want to. I guess that means I'm just lazy:gasp:

Physically? I can bench press 80+kg I used to play league so going to the gym was necessary to avoid being crushed by Islanders:gasp: I've stopped going to the gym so I'm not as strong as I was.
 

Physically

I'm quite strong physically. I go to the gym to lift four times a week, and I run the other three days. I can bench press 185 lbs about five or six times; I don't remember what my max was (the heaviest I can push out once). And when it comes to lower body, I could squat 315 lbs easily, many times. I'm not the fastest though, my best mile time is at 6.89 minutes. But I could run five miles without a problem (distance much over speed). So, in short, I am physically strong. At least, for my age. If I, a fifteen year old, were put up against an adult (on or off steroids), my fragile un-drugged body might be crushed. Who knows.

Mentally

I consider myself mentally strong. But there are many different kinds of mental strengths. Intelligent: yes. I'm smart, ya know? Common Sense: 0. I don't have any common sense in most situations. I'm the type of person who would walk into the middle of traffic to observe what happens. A natural scientist you would say?

But yeah, I could hold my own in a debate or argument. I don't give into pressure and remain my own person. I have a good memory and can think problems out very well. However, I'm very competitive and can be stubborn at times. Actually, I tend to, at times, let my anger get the best of me. So mentally, I have my REALLY STRONG points, and I have my REALLY WEAK points.
 
Physically:

Meh, I can lift some heavy objects, the odd bok full of books or a very heavy suitcase or bag. However I have terrible wrists due to my arthratuis (sp), so sometimes I cant even pack a bag at work because the oversized books can be too heavy for me. It depends on weather to be honest how I can move stuff.

Mentally:

Mentally = shit. Im a emotional person and get upset SO easy and SO quickly. I lose my temper easily and can be swayed easily by rumor and media. Im a gullable person who takes everything to heart.

 
Menatally id say im quite strong, i can handle bad news well without becoming a wreck. I generally know most of the time what i wanna do and how im gonna do it, so i try and keep my mind focused on the things i need done..most of the time.

Physically im quite strong, i used to go to the gym, that however is now a thing of the past so im weaker (and fatter >_<) than what i was 3-9 months ago. Have to get back to the gym soon :gasp:
 
physically:

yeah i do A LOT of sports training because my coach and parents says i have a lot of talent and to use to keep fit. so, yeah, im pretty good... i think...

mentally:

i have REALLY BAD short term memory but my long term memorys excellent. also i am strong-willed and my exam results reflect how clever i am (or not...)
 
.:[Physically
For my size (I'm somewhat petite), I'd say I'm pretty strong. I have a mean throw, which earned me a solid position at 3rd base when I played softball (which I'm going to get back into by next year!). My stamina is pretty poor, though. I can run fast but my energy depletes quickly; same with running up stairs/biking. I used to be able to do a few fingertip pushups about a year ago, but I can't do them anymore. :wacky:

.:[Mentally
It depends on how you define mental strength.
Intelligent, yes. Will power, hell no. XD As for being able to deal with shit, I'd say I'm strong but I have sudden weak spots. I've been through a hell of a lot of shit in my life. I am also really forgetful.

Physically, I guess I'm decently strong. *shrug* I worked in a fast food restaurant for four years...and there was a lot of lifting and whatnot. The days of carrying around 80 lbs of frozen waffle fries have been behind me now for a few years, but I think I could still do it. I inherited a stockier build from my dad, so I guess that's a nice genetic predisposition to counteract my shortness. :ness:

Mentally, I'd say I'm pretty strong as well. I think the concept of "mental strength" is a lot more nebulous than physical strength, but I'll do my best. :wacky: I've gotten a lot of experience in this regard, as I've dealt with...well, a lot of fun family issues in my day. Also, I learned to work under pressure at that afore-mentioned job, since I was a supervisor there for some time. So, I can handle stress pretty well and I've handled plenty of interesting situations and stuff...so I suppose I qualify for mentally strong...I guess. :wacky:
 
Physically: I would say so. Stronger than the average bear at least. I train for athletics 6 times a week, and two of those sessions are actual weight lifting sessions. And I think I look strong, but not massive? just athletic? if that makes sense? ^_^

Mentally: Fluctuates between very and not at all! Certain aspects are strong, like I hate giving up. but then other times i feel weak and don't want to go on. might have something to do with my mum passing away when i was 19, but maybe that made me stronger too. so il average it out and say average for mentally strong!
 
Physically: Well aside from working out, I am decently strong. Which this means absolutely nothing to me, to say the least. I would rather be fast these days to be honest. I can lift my own weight and I can still run sub 7:00 mile splits in a 3 mile run. My upper body is pretty developed, gotten a bit out of shape in the last 3 months. My legs are my strongest part of my body. I have very muscular legs/thighs/ass. I have ran track all my life, and when done with high school I picked up running on the treadmill and what not. I finally was given a chance to get back into soccer 2-3 years ago, and played for 2 years as keeper till my ACL ruptured. So these days I take it pretty easy, just last week I had started doing my routine again. I have already hit my peek again with weights, so I'm looking forward to finally getting back into shape again.

Mentally: 1) All depends what area you hit me. I'm a push over when it comes to people I care for, but when someone is being disrespectful and crossing lines, I'm a bit abrasive. I'm very weathered when it comes with real life, I have been through a bit of family death. My mom had cancer when I was 9, so I had to deal with that on my own. (she made it, no worries) Unfortunately on the Wood's side we've had an awful amount of death in the past 6 years. (3 cousins and 2 aunts and both grandparents) So I am very strong when it comes to dealing with my shiznit. I am not very emotional when it comes to myself, I never express my own problems, I usually relate stuff in stories to let people know I've been through similar circumstances. My cousin took his life when I was 7, in which my parents covered up as a natural death. So mentally.. I've seen the shiznit, but its made me a very understanding person and made me respect my life and others around me.

2) My intelligence... well I specialize in certain areas just like everyone else. My expertise is computers and also behavioral traits. I am very good with people. I am smart when it comes to my area, but it if it something like Physics I dare not try to learn it. I am very good at being given a situation and figuring it out. Hince my love for video games really. I hate being given help when its not wauranted, absolutely hate it, and if I ever ask then you know I've tried everything. I hate shortcuts as well. Makes me feel stupid and week when I take them, hince when I play a video game I try to up the difficulty by sticking to one weapon the entire game. (say a pistol in gears 2) I am very proficient when it comes to hands eye coordination, hince why I love my 5 speed Altima.

Physically: Not very.

I bet a high school freshman could knock me out, no joke. -_-
I have been starting to work out more and exercise more to get my strength up so maybe that won't be a threat to me in the near future.

Mentally: Decent

I can hold my own most of the times, but I tend to buckle under intense pressure, which is most likely when I'm being graded for what I'm doing. :andry:
 
Physically:
I've just now stated getting strength. I can lift certain things I couldn't lift 4 years ago. It only took a few years for me to gain some kind of strength.

Mentally:
I think I'm pretty strong. I've had to go through a lot of BS, but I look back now and I can honestly say that I'm Chillin now. I got this from my mom. She's gone though a lot more than anybody I know. Now She's strong and Has 3 kids.
 
Physically I am pathetically weak. I can barely lift anything. Though when I'm being tickled or something my strength seems to skyrocket :ahmed:

Mentally I think I am pretty strong, i wont do anything i don't want to and depending on who i am talking to I can usually tell people where to go. There are certain people and topics I am pretty mentally weak with though :(
 
Physically: I have more muscle than I should... But I cant do anything with it and it ticks me off :rage: I'm SUCH a weakling. All show and no action... I talk tough for being such a scrawny guy :( Don't think I won't TRY and kick your ass though :ahmed:

Mentally: I'm very emotional :( I take things hard most of the time but I try to keep an upbeat attitude and keep myself laughing and going. Joking and laughing keep me sane and prevent me from becoming a total wreck... Laughter IS the best medicine for me sometimes...

All in all: I'm not very strong physically and my mind can get in a rut at times.... But my heart and passion are what really make me a strong person...
